Grayson grabbed a beer from the table, stretching out

his long legs in front of him. “I didn’t even try to argue.”

“There’s no arguing with these women,” Colton agreed.

Truer words had never been spoken. Cheers to that.

Food was served quickly after that and after we

wrangled the kids to the table, it was a pretty perfect

dinner.

Every time I found myself looking at my wife, her eyes

were already on me. She’d smile and then bite on her lips,

as if we were sharing some secrets.

Fuck, I loved this woman. Madly.

Once the table was cleared out, the boys and I went to

the living room, leaving the girls to gossip among

themselves but it was soon after, when Riley came forward

to announce something.

“So, I have some news. I can’t keep it in any longer,” she

started slowly. All attention was on her. Riley grinned and

her hand went to her stomach, cupping her belly tenderly.

“I’m pregnant!”

All the girls squealed, running over to Riley to

congratulate her. Aurora rubbed Riley’s belly, almost

longingly. Lila was crying and Charlotte hugged Riley –

well, practically strangling her. “Oh my God, I’m going to

be an aunt. Again!”

“Congratulation is in order,” I said to the father of the

baby, raising my beer in a toast.

Colton smiled, looking so at ease while he kept his gaze

on Riley. While there was unmistakeable delight in

Grayson’s eyes.

The kids went back to running around, all the adrenaline

about the opening their presents soon enough, pumping

through their veins.

Christmas Eve was always chaos for us. But it was

nothing short of perfect.

None of us were blood related, but damn it, this was

family.
